The reviews of the discount rate in all three jurisdictions began in July 2024, and it is clear that further work will be required to establish the appropriate index for inflation in Scotland and Northern Ireland before the next series of reviews commence in 2029. In Scotland and Northern Ireland the rates, which remain single, were announced on 26 September 2024 as +0.5% for both jurisdictions after the regulations were aligned prior to the review. In England and Wales, the announcement is due on or before 11 January 2025.  This is the first review in which the expert panel has been involved and it is yet to be seen where their advice has landed and whether the Lord Chancellor will adopt it.
